Code breakers

Code breakers is a scavenger hunt designed to teach cubs about codes and ciphers (part of the communicator badge) 

Cubs have to solve the clues and then run and find the appropriate item. The code is a=1, b=2, c=3 etc, so one of the clues is 19 15 13 5 20 8 9 14 7    18 15 21 14 4 , which translates to 'something round'.
